By the time Liuli returned to Luoyinyuan, it was almost midnight.
She estimated that the banquet had dispersed, so she returned to the room. The room was still dark. She turned to look at the place where Cuizhu fell, thinking about helping her up, but found that the ground was empty.
Suddenly I was shocked, could it be——
While he was hesitating, the room suddenly lit up.
"Chi—" the candle was lit with a sound. She raised her hand to block the light, and then she saw Jun Wuxie standing in the center of the room.
I was stunned for a moment, but I didn't expect that he would come to me so late.
"Your Majesty?" She was a little surprised.
"It's so late, where have you been?" Jun Wuxie asked calmly, with no emotion or anger in his voice.
She could even smell the faint smell of alcohol on his body.
"Where's Cuizhu?" She didn't answer, but asked her maid.
"You leave her here alone, do you still need to take care of her?" Jun Wuxie said.
She frowned, thinking that she might as well send him back to her own room.
Facing him, she actually had nothing to feel guilty about. After all, she was not the one who did the wrong thing.
So I sat down at the table. I was really exhausted this night.
Fortunately it was him in this room, if it had been anyone else, he would have been really scared!
"What, you're tired?" he asked.
Liuli nodded, "I ran around all night, what do you think?"
"Where did she go?" he asked, suddenly picking her up and sitting her on his lap.
Liuli was startled, and instinctively hugged his neck tightly, but found that he was gently pressing her legs, and she suddenly became embarrassed.
"Why, is it so hard to say it?" Jun Wuxie asked again as he looked up at her.
Only then did she come back to her senses and realized that she had not answered his question, "If you ask the emperor to guess, where do you think I went?"
Instead, I played charades with him.
Jun Wuxie's hand that was squeezing her leg paused, "Cining Palace!"
Liuli was very surprised. Could he read minds, or was her every move already under his surveillance?
Seeing the surprised look on her face, Jun Wuxie couldn't help but laugh. His smile immediately resolved the tense atmosphere before.
He said, "You have the scent of sandalwood. This scent is only found in the Cining Palace in the entire palace!"
No wonder!
She breathed a sigh of relief, thinking someone was following her.
However, this also shows that I am very imprudent. If someone on the road meets someone as sharp as him, wouldn't I have exposed my secret?
"Yes, it's Cining Palace!" She nodded, "Since the Emperor is so wise, why not guess who I went with?"
Jun Wuxie raised her eyebrows and started to test him. After thinking about it, she shook her head.
"Shuxiang Palace!" She said three words.
"Concubine Yun?" Jun Wuxie was very surprised, "Why did you go with her? Wait, she left Shuxiang Palace?"
Liuli suddenly remembered that even though Taifei Yun was no longer in the cold palace, she was still locked up, but no one dared to guard her. Jun Wuxie was magnanimous, so he didn't send anyone to strictly guard her.
But it is unreasonable for Concubine Yun to leave Shuxiang Palace privately.
"Concubine Yun had no choice but to tell me something urgently, so..." she said, "please don't blame Concubine Yun!"
No matter what she is like, after all, I still can't bear to see her being punished. She has suffered enough and she shouldn't bear it anymore!
"So, Cuizhu was also knocked unconscious by her?" Jun Wuxie asked.
